Merry Christmas

Just grabbing a quick couple of minutes of space before the rest of the day unfolds. We have a 11 staying in the house this week. Al & Sarah, my sister, her husband & three kids, Graham and Joanne. The holiday season is definitely a time for family and catching up. it's great to have the whole crew here.

We started with breakfast at 10 am (this was a challenge for some of the older ones). We opened the presents. Definitely spent less this year as Fiona and I concluded that we simply did not need a whole lot. Struggling to even think of something I wanted never mind needed.

We are now in play mode as the food for the Christmas meal is organized. You know Fiona. 

This was just a quick note to say, have a great Christmas and take a moment in the midst of all of the commercial madness to remember the real reason for this season.
